@pparent Good point, will do!

@mariogrip said in This week in development (week 52 2024): I'd like to start posting weekly development updates here on the forums - this is a bit of an experiment, so please let me know if you find these updates useful and what could be improved. I think it's a great idea, and I think starting a fresh weekly thread would improve things. If once a week is too much, consider a slower pace that's easier to stick to.

@pparent going back to this problem, do you still see it ? In a previous post, I said: I have found a 'rogue' app that can reliably hang my phone. for the record, it is the command line tool nix-index installed via crackle. I have absolutely no interest,in this command now, it was just an experiment that turned into a total phone hang, but I was intrigued by this UT killer. So I started on a quest to install and configure systemd-oomd (yes, that's the system that made Canonical's reputation a bit worse). It was a bit difficult since I did not want to use apt, so it was all a game of building overlays mount and setting the configuration by hand. It was not pretty but now it seems to be mostly operational. I'm a bit pleased to see my first experiment come to a success. My UT killer was eliminated ruthlessly by systemd-oomd. If I start the accursed command via ssh, the ssh session used is killed, letting the other ssh sessions running. It I start it via terminal, the terminal is killed. I'm going to use the phone a bit with this config to check that the system is stable with this addition. After that, if you want to test it, I could help you in this adventure, it could be interesting. If this is really useful, it that could be an interesting addition to UT for the next 26.04 iteration. Smooth the rough edges ! fix some of the crashes...

@ChromiumOS-Guy said @oldbutndy not really it would help a lot yes but you can use standard reverse engneering software to check it, also engneering roms have unlocked bootloader so you just compare that to the oldest release if an engneering rom exists. I actually spent more time looking into this yesterday. I did sequential question search using google AI, and asked about finding a bit to change, etc. The answers sounded reasonable (AI is sometimes very good at that, so I am not sure if all were true ...) For one thing, it said the setting was in special partition. It might have said encrypted. And that the special protection firmware in the T-Mobile models check any changes to that partition. I saved the interaction to a file, but have not edited it for clarity yet. But it was convincing enough to completely give up on BE2028, and the Metro model (# ?).

@ziggutas you can follow the ongoing effort to compile Dekko2 for xenial here https://forums.ubports.com/topic/1477/dekko2-developer-community-thread/25 and here https://gitlab.com/dekkoproject/dekko/issues/ P.S. I'm using webmail until Dekko2 is ready

@hummlbach Stuttgart would be nice for me, i'm interested in app development

@Elrohir said in 20.04 Pixel 3A: Re: 20.04 Pixel 3A Hello everybody, I'm new here and have just installed 20.04 stable in a pixel 3a. I dont know if this is the correct place (please let me know if it isnt), but I would like to share a problem I'm facing. I'm trying to install the Document viewer from UBPorts but I cant get it done. At some point it stops the download and shows the Install button again. I dont know if this may be related with the size (~500 Mb), I have install other apps with no issue. Another issues I had that seem to have been solved after a wile are: Not able to find a mobile hotspot crated with another phone > solved after reboot. In the top dropdown menu, in the System tab, all the options except for Lock and Shut Down did nothing > solved after some time No push notifications on TELEports > solved after reboot. Another thing I found "weird" is the ability to get the left menu out when the phone is locked, but this is more a desing thing than a bug. I will go on with more testing, but so far I really like it Better to check if that issues persist on devel. i had the issue with Document viewer, but it get fixed the next try iirc. For others issues you found i don't have this on devel

@newbie089 I did not brick it! When the battery was empty, I was able to get back into fastboot mode and use twrp again. I tried and failed to flash it with emma (could not be recognized even though in flash mode (green LED)) so i tried to flash the current devel_flashable (#2351078025 master 60732a96) and I am now back at the start (when I boot there is nothing happening but the SONY Logo showing all the time). Any help is appreciated. Cheers

For the record, here are some test feedback from Ratchanan : https://forums.ubports.com/topic/11888/my-ubuntu-touch-devices-participated-in-thailand-nationwide-cell-broadcast-test

@domubpkm @Br1 I can confirm that on volla quintus (OTA-7 and devel channel) isn't working either. Same behavior as @domubpkm , call-recording locks mycrophone and speaker on calls. Nothing is captured on saved file. There os anything i can do to track the problem? (Another interesting thing is that looks like the install-script breaks the camera, it make camera app the capability of record videos. Uninstall the script or change between channels doesn't solve the problem, it is just solved by factory reset )

For information, before closing this thread : The flickering issue has been fixed in 20.04 devel channel : https://gitlab.com/ubports/porting/community-ports/android10/xiaomi-poco-x3/xiaomi-surya/-/commit/9d36e8d5986b2bf21afed7feff46baaa7c7535c9 Thanks to @_Joao_ and everybody on pocox3 telegram channel for their help

@matteo Any news here ? Check there if you can : https://forums.ubports.com/topic/9213/mobile-network-data-counter

@luksus There is people in Chinese successfully flashed the ROM, just checked. I have lost interest in it. However, I hope that untick the Preloader part will work.

@homer Yes you can use clickable with the USB cable. Or if SSH is available on your phone, clickable also can use it. Or you can push the *.click file to your phone with: SCP if SSH is enabled MTP to copy into one of the standard folders (Download, Documents, Pictures or Music) ADB if you update to RC or devel as per Luksus' post

Hi there, Hugo from Pl@ntNet project, the initial contact answering by email. Let us know if you had any issue, I've read some of the reply there but let me know if you need to read something from us.

I emailed the developers of Symphytum, and got a response. Oirio Joshi wrote: "Hello. "A mobile version requires to rewrite the GUI part entirely, so that's probably not going to happen anytime soon, unless anyone is interested in contributing that. I think a mobile friendly GUI could be shared with android and other linux based mobile systems. "Symphytum is more or less in maintenance mode, where smaller features and bug fixed can be expected but we, as a small team, don't have the resources for such a big change, but who knows what the future looks like."
